Chapter 2-Taking the garbage out

5 days passed since I've met my new neighbours.Since then,I decided not to disturb them too much,so I didn't visit them anymore.Besides,I meet up with Maou everyday when I go to work and we get to have some small talk.He's such a sweet person,and hardworking too.Somehow,he always manages to put a smile on my face.

Since I moved in this apartment,my life took a turn for the better.It was a little bit hard getting used to living far away from what you were used to,but it was really worth it.Of course,you miss your mom,and call her every day to check up on her.She has always been supportive and encouraged you to get out of your comfort zone.

There were nights when you cried alone in bed,craving for someone to be by yourside,a friend with whom you could talk to,but you were just too shy and a little bit stuck up for anyone to get to like you.You got this way because of the bullying you have been through in your early years,at school.You found comfort in playing some games and watching movies on your laptop,to get your mind off of these sad thoughts.You were optimistic enough to think one day,it will be better and you'll find friends that will care for you.

"One day,I'm sure of it."

Today was the day I needed to take the garbage out,'cuz oooh boy,was I drowning in wrappers.Being a lazy girl and not going outside wasn't helping the situation eather.I gathered everything I needed to throw away and put them in a plastic back,then headed outside.

I was in my pj's and I didn't bother to put anything else on,besides a black jacket and some slippers on my feet.It was getting dark fast,so I had to be quick about it,but how can I be quick when the bag is...sooo...heavyyy..

"God damn it,it's gonna take forever to get to the garbage dump..Actually,I don't even know if i remember where the garbage dump is.But I'm not going to go back now,I need to get rid of this junk."

So my adventure began.After a while,I started dragging the sack,because holding it was just to much for my hands to handle.My gosh,I'd give anything to have somebody helping me.After about 15 minutes of dragging all the junk ,with a puppy following me and nibbling on the bag while I ran away from him,I decided to take a well deserved break.

Catching my breath,I looked at the sky and my heart skipped a beat.For a moment,I thought I saw a humanoid figure on the sky with big,black wings..but maybe the smell of this stinky garbage mixed with my lack of oxigen is hallucinating me..or was it?Maybe it was a crow of some sort,i don't know..

Besides that,the view was simply stunning.The sun slowly setting was painting the clouds in different shades of pink,purple and yellow.A flock of pigeons flew by,making the scenery even more beautiful.

"It's so beautiful..."you awed to yourself.

"Yeah,it's pretty cool."said a boy's voice from behind you.

You jumped and looked behind you,just to see a boy,about your age,a little bit taller with purple hair and eyes.You stared at eachother for a while,then the boy broke the silence.

"So,where are you going with that sack?"he said bored,while pointing at the bag filled with junk.

"To the garbage dump,isn't it obvious?"you said ,a little bit irritated by his attitude.

"Ok then.Cya"he said ,turning his back on you."But,just to let you know,the garbage dump is in the other way."

"Oh,that's just great!It's gonna get dark 'till I get there with this gigantic piece of shit sack..maybe it's not too late to ask him for help..but would he really do that for me?Doubt it..well,it's worth a shot."

"H-hey!..uhm.."

"Yeah?"he asked, stopping from walking.

"Could you..help me with this sack?It's very heavy,and it will get dark until I.."

"Why should I help you?"he cut you off,turning around to look at you.

"Well..I'll pay ."you said,mentally high-fiving yourself for leaving some change in the jacket.

"How much?"

"Is 50 yen enough?That's all I have with me now.But I could give you more after..."

"Yeah,sure"He cut you off again."Let's go,it's going to get cool and I don't wanna catch a cold."

The boy grabbed the sack with one hand while looking away from you.You just stood there,a little bit startled by the scent he left behind him.He smelt like Maou's apartment.Maybe he was the roommate they where talking about...

"Aren't you gonna come,or..?"he said,looking at you a little bit confused.

"Oh,yeah.Coming."

You went next to him and tried to peek from time to time and look more closely at his face..and you weren't let down.He looked really nice.His hair was shiny,one lock of hair covering his right eye.And those eyes were just weird as Maou's and Ashyia's.What's up with these contact lenses?

"Here we are"he said,throwing the bag in the dump.

"Thank you so much...uhm..."

"I don't know his name..maybe he'll say it."

"Whatever."the boy said,heading off.

"Wait,I still have to pay you!"you said,searching for money in your pockets.

"Keep your change."

Then,he just ran away,in the opposite direction.

"Thank yoooooou!"you screamed after him.

He didn't seem to hear...or care.You stood there,confused and grateful for him helping you.Streching a little,tired after all this hard work(mostly done by the boy,but you did some working too),you decided it was time to head home,so you zipped your jacket up and ran back to the apartment,not noticing that the tinny puppy from earlier was coming after you.
